• MICRO: The BIG Idea
  been broken during shipment, and raise a little angel money." With that bit of revenue, they managed to complete work "up to beta level" on a cleaner fusing material and bought a used furnace element and quartz tube on the cheap by August 2003. A few months later, the first units shipped of what...
• MICRO: Transistorama
  poly layers and to next-generation devices is discussed briefly. Bit Line Coupling and Trench-Node Leakage During the development of doped polysilicon recipes using a vertical low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) furnace at Infineon Technologies' 300-mm fab in Richmond, VA, it was observed...
• INDUSTRY NEWS The Tech museum gets ready for a high-tech barn raising
  this incredibly clean environment. We learned that contamination is not just dust. It's also static, impurities, vibration--all these stray factors that you have to eliminate because you want the process to be as reproducible as possible. That's a bit of insight that really shaped how we will present...
• History, teamwork come together at Siemen's Dresden Fab
  are standing was a tank exercise area [for the Soviet army], so we had quite a bit of pollution. There was actually a gun turret laying in the woods a little bit down the hill . . . . This part of Dresden has a long military history." Before building the 8-inch advanced-process fab, old army barracks were...

  like, especially if you run the generator nonstop at your campsites. Four-wheel antilock brakes provide the stopping power. From the front seats, the ride is smooth, and the 31-ft long cabin-on-wheels handled well. Those in back might have gotten a bit bounced around on corners I took too fast...

  and operation. The system can automatically switch between cool and normal plasma conditions without the need for mechanical torch shields. Windows-based software running on the 32-bit multitasking OS/2 Warp operating system facilitates operation and simplifies information management. The AutoProbe VP2...
• Dodge Magnum R/T AWD
  Dodge execs may be wincing a bit at their lousy timing. Shortly after they introduced the wonderful 345-hp Magnum, gas prices hit $3 a gallon. Despite the apparent bad timing, the car is not as thirsty at the pump as you might guess from its horsepower rating. For instance, I got about 21 mpg...
• Sleek designs hinge on strong rotary joints
  more options for flexible printed-circuit-board pathway design and protection. Flip-and-twist hinge design adds a bit more whimsy to standard clam shell cell phones. The concept is currently being investigated for camcorders, digital cameras, PDAs, and notebook computers. The quest for quality...
• MICRO:Goldman (March 2001)
  the techniques used to obtain this information. All it required was a little bit of busywork, yet it reveals a significant disparity in operating temperatures between furnaces. This is profound information; these types of differences, I suspect, are quite pervasive among many types of process equipment...
• MICRO: World Beat
  renowned professors. One of the experts, Antonio Gonzalez, has conducted advanced microprocessor research for more than 16 years, while Roger Espasa and Toni Juan are experts on 64-bit processors, Intel notes. The research team will focus on Intel's Itanium processor and Pentium processor family design...
